UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction This file gives detailed country notes on the UNECE tram and metro statistics dataset. These metadata describe how countries have compiled tram and metro statistics, what the data cover, and where possible how passenger numbers and passenger-km have been determined. Whether data are based on ticket sales, on-board sensors or another method may well affect the comparability of passenger numbers across systems and countries, hence it being documented here. Most of the data are at the system level, allowing comparisons across cities and systems. However, not every country could provide this, sometimes due to confidentiality reasons. In these cases, sometimes either a regional figure (e.g. the Provinces of Canada, which mix tram and metro figures with bus and ferry numbers) or a national figure (e.g. Czechia trams, which excludes the Prague tram system) have been given to maximise the utility of the dataset. File Structure The disseminated file is structured into seven different columns, as follows: Countrycode: These are United Nations standard country codes for statistical use, based on M49. The codes together with the country names, region and other information are given here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/ (and can be downloaded as a CSV directly here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/#). City: This column gives the name of the city or region where the metro or tram system operates. In many cases, this is sufficient to identify the system. In some cases, non-roman character names have been converted to roman characters for convenience. Type: This describes the type of transport system. Most values are either Tram or Metro. In addition, there are Light Rail, Mixed (used when the tram or metro data also includes e.g. bus and ferry journeys), and Other. In most cases, a combination of City and Type allows identification of the system. Year: The year the data refer to. Data start in 2010. Variable: Pass refers to passenger numbers, PKM refers to Passenger-km (both in thousands per year). Value: Numerical values of Passenger numbers or Passenger-km (both in thousands). Thus a figure for passenger numbers of 3000 means 3 million passengers per year, or approximately 8200 passengers per day. Note: This column contains descriptive notes when the City/Type combination is not sufficient to specify the system involved (as there are sometimes multiple tram or metro systems in the same city in the United States,) or lists other important inclusions/exclusions. Country Notes Armenia 1. Data collection The data are collected by the State Statistical Committee monthly, using a statistical reporting form. The number of passengers transported is determined by the number of all types of traffic documents sold (one-time tickets, long-term tickets, etc., including traffic users who use the service for free). Passenger turnover is determined by the sum of the number of transported passengers and the average distance travelled by one passenger. The average distance travelled by one passenger is determined based on one-time passenger flow observations and considered a constant value until the next observation. 2. System coverage There is one metro network in the Republic of Armenia, in Yerevan. There is no tram network in the country. Belarus 1. Data collection The Minsk Metro submits monthly data to the Ministry of Transport and Communications, which it has complied using their accounting data, ticket-check sheets and other primary accounting documents. The Ministry of Transport sends official statistical information to Belstat. Belstat uses the information obtained to produce summary data on transport statistics. 2. System coverage There is a metro network only in Minsk. It includes two lines and 29 stations. There is a tram network in four cities (Minsk, Mazyr, Novopolotsk and Vitebsk), with data split between Minsk, Gomel region (Mazyr) and Vitebsk region (Vitebsk and Novopolotsk). Belgium – data not yet provided 1. Data collection Metro: The number of passengers is published by the public transport operator; passenger-km are calculated by the Ministry of Transport. The data are based on ticket information. Data from mobility surveys are used (average length of trip in kilometres) to calculate passenger kilometres. Since the introduction of the MOBIB- card some public transport operators are changing their methodologies. Trams: In Brussels, the number of passengers is published by the public transport operator; passenger kilometres are calculated by the Ministry of Transport. No disaggregated data on trams are available for networks in other cities. The data are aggregated together with bus data. Based on the aggregated bus/tram data the Ministry of Transport does calculations and estimations in order to calculate the modal split. The data are based on ticket information. Data from mobility surveys are used (average length of trip in kilometres) to calculate passenger kilometres. Since the introduction of the MOBIB-card some public transport operators are changing their methodologies. 2. System coverage There is one metro network in Brussels and three pre-metro networks in Brussels, Antwerp, and Charleroi. There are tram networks in Brussels, Antwerp, Gent, Coastal Tram, Charleroi, and Liege (under construction). Bosnia and Herzegovina 1. Data collection Data on the road urban transport of passengers are collected through quarterly statistical surveys. The urban transport of passengers covers organized public transport of passengers in cities conducted by business entities engaged in the urban transport (trams, trolleybus and buses). Included are active business entities employing more than 10 persons. The number of passengers is obtained from the number of tickets sold. 2. System coverage There are no metro networks in Bosnia and Herzegovina. There is one tram network in the capital, Sarajevo. 3. Data availability Annual data on the total number of transported passengers are available from 2016 onwards. Data on passenger kilometres are not available. Bulgaria 1. Data collection Metro: The data are collected using ticket information and on-board sensors from “Metropolitan”. Trams: The data are collected using ticket and card information. 2. System coverage There is one metro network and one tram network in Bulgaria, both in Sofia. Canada 1. Data collection Data are collected by Statistics Canada but are not published. Respondent-Companies fill out an electronic form at Statistics Canada. The data come from their financial statements. The data represent the total of the passengers recorded by a transport company and there is no distinction between the type of vehicle used (metro, tramway, light rail, bus, commuter train or ferry). 2. System coverage There are three high capacity underground urban metro systems in Canada: Toronto Subway, Montreal Metro and Vancouver-Sky Train. Canada has five light rail/tram networks: the Toronto streetcar system; the CTrain in Calgary, Alberta; the Edmonton LRT; the O-Train in Ottawa, Ontario; and the Ion rapid transit in Waterloo Region, Ontario. Croatia 1. Data collection Data on the road urban transport of passengers are collected through quarterly statistical surveys. The urban transport of passengers covers organized public transport of passengers in cities with a population of over 40 000, conducted by business entities engaged in the urban transport of passengers (by trams and buses). Included are active business entities employing more than 10 persons and business entities registered in other activities but engaged in urban transport of passengers. The number of passengers is obtained from the number of tickets sold and estimates (based on the number of sold bus/tram passes for the urban and suburban transport). 2. System coverage There are two tram networks (Zagreb and Osijek), but no metro networks in Croatia. 3. Data availability Annual data on number of transported passengers are available for both tram networks as total. Data on passenger kilometres are not available. Cyprus – no trams or metros Czechia 1. Data collection Metro data are collected by sensors in the metro and data on trams are collected using mostly ticket information. The data on urban transport is collected through questionnaires sent out to all operators carrying out urban transport. Filling in these questionnaires is obligatory according to Czech law. 2. System coverage There is one metro and one tram network in Prague. There are tram networks in other cities in addition to Prague, including Brno, Liberec, Most-Litvinov, Olomouc, Ostrava and Plzen. 3. Data availability Passenger numbers and kilometres are available for metro and other transport modes of urban transport (i.e. buses, trams, trolleybuses) for all the cities where urban transport exists. 4. Other notes Data provided in millions, so multiplied by 1000 manually The data in different cities, except Prague, are considered confidential as there is usually one operator providing urban services in each of them. These data are reported as aggregate (“Czechia total, excluding Prague”). On the map, these data appear at Brno. Denmark 1. Data collection Data is collected directly from the operating companies. The companies base their calculations on a mix of boarding information from sensors, ticket information and information from electronic travel cards that can be used for all public transport. 2. System coverage There is one metro system (Copenhagen) and one tram system in the country. 3. Other notes The "Aarhus Letbane" opened its first segment of 6 km in December 2017. Data for passenger kilometres are published in millions of kilometres, so the reported number due to rounding for "Aarhus Letbane" is 0, which means that there have been less than half a million passenger kilometres. Estonia 1. Data collection Using a statistical survey, data are collected from tram network operators who make the calculations. The data are compiled by Tallinna Linnatranspordi AS who has its own data collection methodology. Passenger registration data from on-board sensors are used for passenger counting. An average distance of 2,93 km is used for calculating passenger kilometres for trams.

    Streetcar Plan Posters

    WELCOME Welcome! The purpose of this open house is to present draft recommendations from the Bicycle Master Plan and the Streetcar System Plan to the public. City sta! and citizen volunteers are here to present the material and to answer questions. The room is divided into three sections: one for the Bicycle Master Plan, one for the Streetcar System Plan, and one called “Integration Station,” where we tie the two concepts together. Refreshments and child care services are also available. The bicycle and streetcar networks will play a key role in Portland’s future. Together, they will reduce reliance on the automobile for daily tasks, they will reinforce urban land use patterns, and they will help the City achieve its goals to combat climate change. This is the beginning of a transportation transformation. WHY PLAN? PORTLAND HAS A HISTORY OF SUCCESSFUL LONG-RANGE PLANNING In 1904, landscape architect John C.
